Wicked Witch Hat

"I'll get you, my pretty...and your little dog, too!" Does that bring chills to your spine? Margaret Hamilton did such a good job with the role of the Wicked Witch of the West in "The Wizard of Oz". The hat she wore in that role recently sold at Guernsey's Pop Culture auction for $208,250. It was the highest selling price of the night!
